Friday Throwback!

I think this track came out in 1995 when Da Brat was in her element. Where is she now?!?! I guess she's still locked up in jail.....tis a sad shame! I know I wasn't the only girl that rocked her hair like Da Brats, it was her signature look. I had to beg my friend to help assist with the back as there's no way I could do it alone. I thought I looked hot with my hair freshly relaxed, intricately parted into twist and secured with colourful bobbles. This kind of style didn't last long for me, hence why I only rocked it a few times.

I knew this song word for word...."It goes 1 plus 2 plus 3 plus 4, from the bottom to the top, top to bottom I go. So now you know who I am and what I is....." I like the laid back feel of this song and loved the video even more. The cameo appearances were endless from Mary J Blige, T-Boz, MC Lyte, Bill Bellamy, Diddy, The Late B.I.G and Jermaine Dupri.

I Want These Shoes.

Colourful Multi Strap High Heel Sandal £18 (Matalan)

I want these shoes...can I afford them not really, but some one may surprise me (nudge, nudge). I adore all things colourful and these shoes make such a statement, it enables you to keep the rest of your outfit simple. I like the zip detail and the contrasting colour straps plus the heel is not too high. These beauty's will look so hot come spring/summer, teamed with some skinny jeans the ripped type and a simple vest top. Or they'd look great with a pair of white skinnies and a crop top. You could even team them with a pair of tailored shorts and a nice fitted top. Watch this space......

Week 16 Of My Journey Getting To New York.

This week has been really quiet due to the fact that I haven't used my time wisely- sigh! It really urks me when I waste time, as you can never get it back. Yet I continue to do it again and again, maybe I'm being too hard on myself and setting my expectations too high? Or it could be that I'm comparing myself to what others are doing? There's nothing wrong with a little healthy competition right?!?!?

It's the end of January and I now only have 6 months until I jet off too the states. That reminds I need to get my passport renewed as it expires this month. Time is beginning too fly as I knew it would, kinda scary really. I'm not quite excited, more apprehensive at this stage.

The most I did this week is pay off the remainder of my deposit for the apartment I'm staying at. The main focus over the next few months is to lock down at least 2 work placements. This week I have to sit down and think about what companies I'm going to approach, and what services I can offer. As I would like to have at least one placement confirmed before I get out there.
